It's certainly a choice!
Hopefully QO-100 sprint SSB this afternoon, then AFS 80/40 Data tomorrow.
Happy New Year to all my followers! I'll try to be a bit more active on Bluesky in 2026.

At 6pm tonight (Christmas Eve) and repeated at 5pm tomorrow, Cambridge Radio has the annual Rotary schools' carol concert, which I recorded and produced.
Online at cambridge.radio, on smart speaker, the Radioplayer app and 105FM/DAB in Cambridge.

Good morning from Paradise!

Good morning!
I'm really struggling to answer the question as it is. Plenty have taken over as PM and then gone to an election, but for both becoming and stopping because of a general election, I'm genuinely not sure.
I've had good results from Macrium Reflect Free
I'm involved with Raynet in Cambridgeshire. Personally, I believe it isn't particularly relevant for emergencies. But there is value in supporting local events (the primary reason I'm involved) and also considering preparedness for things like larger power cuts. Others in the group would disagree.
Unexpected climate change consequence: French TV news reports that 50 years ago, births of French babies peaked in early June. Now, it's end July.
Suspected cause: September nights are now too warm for action under the covers, so conceptions are happening later in autumn!
Why could I possibly want to redesign an Ali Express DCDC 3 times? I'll be talking at the RSGB Convention on the importance of switch mode power supply PCB layout in a month's time. Would be great to see you if you're around.
And here in Cambridge. Guess this was it:

Not as bad as that but yes. I guess the gluing machine was slightly misaligned for this month's batch.
I was unaware of this. Thank you! Looks very useful.
The summit of Shining Tor, with a Drystone wall, trig point and heather in the foreground. A valley is in the distance.
Lovely weekend away in my caravan in the Peak District activating a few SOTA summits
It's getting quite popular in the SOTA community too because the trackers are so lightweight. The Lake District and Snowdonia both have digipeaters on hilltops.
Cherry Hinton Hall in Cambridge, Massachusetts?

A mainly grass-covered mountain
In Snowdonia for a long weekend, where I've been doing a few SOTA activations. I seem to have been generally lucky with the weather.
I seem to remember sending a stamped addressed envelope to the Broom Cupboard to get a copy of those lyrics!

Not too bad here at G3PYE/P but more wind than expected.
I really like this idea. Another really bad example I've seen recently was 'I asked ChatGPT which stocks to pick'. Clearly fails the 'I asked my mate Dave' test.
Thanks for the recommendation. Looks interesting but I have 6m Trophy contest in my sights this afternoon!
Me at the beach with a clear blue sky
Good morning! Back in February, I booked this weekend away on the Suffolk coast. I've certainly been very lucky with the weather!
When some of the 'More coming soon' bits get completed, this is going to be a really useful resource.
Looking down on a valley from a hill, with shower clouds on the horizon.
Sunny morning on a campsite with hills in the distance
Spent the bank holiday weekend with @m1geo.com , @m0wut.bsky.social and M0VFC walking in the Lake District. A bit wet for the last couple of days but a lovely camping trip in my caravan.
Oh yes, it's a bag to keep rain and muck off the tow bar while it's not in use!
Assuming you mean the white bar across the top it's some plastic for aerodynamics protecting the solar panel behind it.
Me with a cup of tea inside my caravan. A large window looks out towards other vans also parked up.
My caravan on its pitch
First Bluesky post and also my first time out in my (new to me) caravan. Stayed fairly local as this trip is just to test everything works. So far, so good.
👏
Thanks. As much as I prefer the ethos of Mastodon, it wasn't getting traction, so I've moved here.
